The Truth About Testosterone in Menopause


Listen Later

I’m excited to share the raw, unpublished findings from my "Menopause in 2026" survey, where I analyzed data from 766 women to identify the optimal "sweet spot" for testosterone levels in hormone replacement therapy (HRT). Through these real-world insights, I break down why many women feel best at levels between 50 and 80 ng/dL and why I strongly caution against the permanent side effects and health risks associated with high-dose pellet therapy. Whether you're struggling with brain fog, mood changes, or joint pain, this video offers a holistic look at how to safely manage testosterone and navigate your menopausal journey with evidence-based guidance.
